Hi All,

Sorry for the delay in getting back with you all … didn’t mean to leave this 
hanging, but some higher priority things came up.

Bottom line - I’m still stuck and probably going to open up a PMR with IBM 
after sending this.  Richards’ suggestion below errors for me on the “-g 
Administrator” part.  Other suggestions sent directly to me up to and including 
completely deleting the GPFS GUI and reinstalling have also not worked.

No matter what I do, I cannot log in to the GUI.  Thanks for the suggestions, 
though…

Kevin

Sorry I need to learn to read… didn’t see the “object ‘Administrator’ does not 
exist” error.

That said, my workaround for the problem of forgetting the password was to 
create a new “admin2” user and use that to reset the password on admin itself.

[root@gpfs cli]# ./mkuser admin2 -p Passw0rd -g Administrator,SecurityAdmin
EFSSG0019I The user admin2 has been successfully created.
EFSSG1000I The command completed successfully.


Cheers

This happened to me a while back, I opened a pmr to get it sorted but it's just 
a case of running some cli commands. I'll dig it out.

All,

/root
root@testnsd1# /usr/lpp/mmfs/gui/cli/chuser admin -p abc1231 -g 
Administrator,SecurityAdmin
EFSSP0010C CLI parser: The object "Administrator" specified for "-g" does not 
exist.
/root
root@testnsd1# /usr/lpp/mmfs/gui/cli/chuser admin -p abc1231 -g SecurityAdmin
EFSSP0010C CLI parser: The object "SecurityAdmin" specified for "-g" does not 
exist.
/root
root@testnsd1#

I’ll also add that all of the work I did earlier in the fall was with the test 
cluster running an earlier version of GPFS and it’s subsequently been updated 
to GPFS 4.2.3.5 … not sure that’s relevant but wanted to mention it just in 
case.

Thanks!

Kevin

Hmm.. odd.

Here’s what the lsuser output should look like.

# /usr/lpp/mmfs/gui/cli/lsuser
Name  Long name Password status Group names                 Failed login 
attempts
admin           active          Administrator,SecurityAdmin 0

Can you try something like…

# /usr/lpp/mmfs/gui/cli/mkuser admin -p abc1231 -g Administrator,SecurityAdmin

All,

Sorry - should’ve mentioned that:

/root
root@testnsd1# /usr/lpp/mmfs/gui/cli/chuser admin -p abc1231
EFSSG0001C Cannot validate option: login
/root
root@testnsd1# /usr/lpp/mmfs/gui/cli/lsuser -Y
lsuser:user:HEADER:version:reserved:reserved:Name:Long name:Password 
status:Group names:Failed login attempts:
/root
root@testnsd1#

Weird - it’s like the login doesn’t exist … but like I said, I had logged into 
it prior to November.  Thanks...

Kevin

The GUI password can be changed via command line using chuser.

/usr/lpp/mmfs/gui/cli/chuser

Usage is as follows (where userID = admin)


chuser userID {-p <newPassword> | -l <longName> | -a <name_or_id> | -d 
<name_or_id> | -g <name_or_id> | --expirePassword} [-o <currentPassword>]

Hi All,

So this is embarrassing to admit but I was playing around with setting up the 
GPFS GUI on our test cluster earlier this fall.  However, I was gone pretty 
much the entire month of November for a combination of vacation and SC17 and 
the vacation was so relaxing that I’ve forgotten the admin password for the 
GPFS GUI.  :-(

Is there anything I can do to recover from this short of deleting the GPFS GUI 
related RPM’s, re-installing, and starting over from scratch?  If that’s what I 
have to do, it’s no big deal as this is just our little 6-node test cluster, 
but I thought I’d ask before going down that route.

Oh, and if someone has a way to accomplish this that they’d rather not share in 
a public mailing list for any reason, please feel free to e-mail me directly, 
let me know, and I won’t tell if you won’t tell (and hopefully Michael Flynn 
won’t tell either!)…. ;-)

Thanks…
